A friend of mine is just returned from Paris where he
been to the Jubilee — He and Smith the Number
travelled together. They were at several of
public meetings in the provinces and were every where in
quality of Englishmen treated with great distinction and cordiality.

lost a good deal of reputation as a General and man of
business by the Jubilee which was very ill conducted, though
the people were so very generally well affected to the Revolution
as not to be willing to find fault.
Adieu — Remember me respectfully and affectionately at
the Heath — not forgetting the honourable gentleman, when
he happens to make one.
Sat.y Aug. 14 instth 1790. Bedford Row
